First of all my apologies. I had to take care of some duties at home that prevented me from posting the newest question at the regular time. Because of that, answers will be accepted for this week’s questions until next Monday night at midnight EST.

The HSF Trivia Week six question was: How many astronauts were aboard the first launch of the Space Shuttle and what were the names of the crew and the shuttle?

The answer is: 2 astronauts flew on the maiden flight of Space Shuttle Columbia. The astronuats were Commander John Young and pilot Robert Crippen.

The winner was Al K. Congratulations Al!

The HSF Trivia Week 7 questions is: What time was it in Houston when the Apollo 13 mission lifted off the launch pad. The answer has to be in military time.

You can submit your answers to me, Commander Merlin, at Merlin@RV-103.com. All answers must be submitted by midnight Monday to be considered.
